Were he a secular person he wouldn't have disowned his daughter who married out of Islamic Law.

You have to look into the definition of theocracy. I can define it for you but I'm not here to educate you. But for the record, Islam has never had a theocracy; a clergy, a group of learned men who "legislate" for other people and are supreme. In Islam Allah S.W.T is supreme and only HIS laws are implemented, not of man.

Now, to your last and lengthy question that mentions numerous "Muslim" states (not Islamic)... Islam will shape our lives in an Islamic State according to Islam, whereas in the countries you mention, custom and culture shape people's lives (at times with the label of Islam).

You didn't answer my question. What did Jinnah mean when he said Pakistani will not be a theocracy? If he knew that Islam isn't a theocracy, what was he talking about - Christian theocracy?

You said that our lives will be shaped according to Islam. And who will decide what that is? There are dozens of different interpretations around? Which one will we choose?
